And then a gigantic golden carp leaped out of the water.
The carp radiated golden light, and its black eyes emitted a terrifying cold gleam.
It had several long fish whiskers at the corners of its mouth, and its belly was bulging as if something was about to break through.
As we kai observed it, the golden karp also noticed him.
However, it didn't pay him any mind and instead flicked its tail in the air.
Bang! A loud explosion echoed in the air, and the water level around the carp suddenly dropped by half a foot.
Countless water demons frolicking in the water suddenly burst apart, turning into clouds of blood mist.
The blood mist merged into the Jesuit, dying the entire area blood red.
At that moment, the golden carp opened its mouth wide and then sucked in deeply.
Half of the river's blood water was completely drawn into its mouth, significantly reducing the water flow in that area.
After draining the blood water, the golden carp closed its mouth and eyes, seemingly digesting.
After an unknown period, it suddenly opened its mouth again and spat out countless transparent water columns, spraying them back into the Jesuit River, allowing the water to return to the river.
Seeing the scene, Way Kai couldn't help but gasp.
Is this the water demon boss of the Jishu River? If it were an ordinary water demon, he might attempt to kill it.
But this golden carp is clearly no ordinary water demon.
It possesses such strength even before transforming, capable of easily obliterating the other water demons in the river with just one move.
If it were to transform, it would likely be even more powerful.
Most importantly, the Jesuit River is its home ground.
While Wake Kai wasn't too worried on land, if he go underwater, it seems he'll have to use the method he employed against the hidden dragon python.
Wayai thought carefully, it seemed this was the only way to deal with the water demons in the water.
Otherwise, relying solely on sword energy might not deal enough damage.
Just as he was thinking, the golden carp suddenly splashed back into the water, and after a few bubbles, it disappeared.
Wayai observed for a long time, but did not see it reappear.
Feeling a bit disappointed in such a wide Jesuit river if the opponent was determined to hide.
It would indeed be hard to find unless he had a way to drain all the water from the river.
But that was obviously impossible.
The Ji Shuer River is N a fish pond.
It's a wide river dozens of meters across.
Forget it.
Let us first clean up the ordinary water demons.
Way Kai thought, "Maybe if I leave this boss until last, it will come out first out of impatience.
" After coming to this conclusion, Way Kai temporarily set aside the water situation and focused solely on clearing the water demons on the shore.
Soon he managed to clear all the water demons on the northern bank of the Jishu River from upstream to downstream.
The entire process went quite smoothly.
Most of the water demons were relatively weak and could be taken out with a single strike.
According to the priest, these ordinary water demons were just regular aquatic creatures that had eaten dragon meat, so their strength wouldn't be that great.
As for the elite water demons, they should have already become water demons before consuming the dragon meat.
Though the dragon meat significantly increased their power, they were still far from matching Way Kai.
After clearing the northern bank, Way Kai turned his gaze to the southern bank.
There were several villages there along with countless wandering water demons.
To get to the southern bank, the normal way would be to take a boat.
Unfortunately, after the water demons came ashore, the original ferry had been destroyed, and no boats dared to navigate the Jesuit River.
Wayai searched around, but found no tools to cross the river.
Could he only swim across? Looking at the wide Jesuit River, Wai couldn't help but smile Riley.
Not to mention that there were water demons lurking in the river.
What if he was discovered by that golden carp halfway through? The water was its home ground and a warrior like Way Kai would likely only be able to exert onetenth of his strength in the water.
Jumping in recklessly would be asking for death or should he go back and ask the temple priest as he was thinking a turtle.
Uh the shiny head of a turtle suddenly popped up in front of him.
A turtle demon, a gigantic turtle demon was struggling to crawl towards the shore.
After finally making it onto the bank, it spotted Wei Kai and immediately shivered, terrified, and hid inside its shell.
"Hey, so cautious?" Way Kai chuckled at the scene.
The previous water demons had all charged at him fearlessly upon seeing him.
He didn't he expect this turtle demon to be so cowardly, hiding in its shell instead of attacking at the first sight of a person? Since that as the case, he would have to test the strength of its shell.
Without saying a word, Way Kai took out the golden cudgel and slammed it down.
Bang! The golden cudel struck the turtle shell with a thunderous sound, but the shell showed no signs of damage whatsoever.
Seeing this scene, Way Kai was momentarily stunned.
What a strong turtle.
Chapter 172.
The tortoise prime minister a mere tortoise demon, and yet its shell is so hard that even the golden cudel can't break it.
Since that's the case, let's try again.
Way Kai sneered coldly and began to chant, "Big, big, big.
" As the incantation echoed, the golden cudel in his hand suddenly grew several times larger, as thick as a water bucket, hovering above the tortoise shell.
"Take another blow from me," Way Kai shouted, and the golden cudgel was about to come crashing down.
Just then, a bald head popped out.
"Stop! Please don't hit me.
" The tortoise demon pleaded loudly.
"I am willing to surrender.
" Oh, you are willing to surrender? Way Kai was taken aback, not knowing how to respond.
He had encountered many water demons before, but none had ever surrendered.
"This tortoise demon seems unusual.
" "Yes, yes, I am willing to surrender.
" The tortoise demon nodded eagerly.
"But I don't need your surrender," Way Kai said with a smile.
"First, tell me, what use are you? I know the situation in the Jesuit river.
" The tortoise demon whispered, "You must be sent by the Jesuit branch, right? I know the situation in the Jesuit River and can tell you all the secrets of the dragon palace in the Jesuit river.
" "Really?" Wayai raised an eyebrow, intrigued.
"In fact," he didn't need this intelligence.
"Of course, it's true.
" The tortoise demon said softly.
"I was the prime minister of the Jesuit river god and know the situation there like the back of my hand.
" "Prime minister of the tortoise?" "Yes, all right then.
" Way Kai nodded and quietly asked, "Tell me, who is that golden carp?" "It is actually the son of the river god.
" "We call it the dragon carp prince," the tortoise prime minister said with a bitter smile.
"But hasn't tea transformed yet.
" "The son of the little dragon?" "Yes, then why is it killing other water demons?" Wayai frowned and asked, "Because the other water demons stole the flesh and blood of the river god.
It wants to take it all back," the tortoise prime minister said with a bitter smile.
And it doesn't tek kill all of them.
Some water demons are still loyal to it.
So there are factions among the water demons.
Wake was surprised, not expecting the small water demons of the Jesuit river to have internal divisions.
If that's the case, you must not be on its side.
Of course not.
The tortoise prime minister quickly shook his head.
I don't believe you.
Don't think you can fool me.
Way Kai frowned and said impatiently, you just said you were once the prime minister of the river god.
Yet you don't stand on the side of the river god.
That is really hard to believe.
I just want to survive.
The tortoise prime minister said tremblingly.
